Range Hood | Compound Step Ballast
A solid, anchored profile with subtle tapers and eased curve. Clean geometry, softened where it counts so it reads substantial without feeling bulky. Versatile enough for modern or transitional kitchens and easy to make the focal point of the range wall.
This parametric hood file makes styling effortless: adjust 35+ user parameters—overall size, shape, strapping, and trim and watch the design update instantly to match your customer’s look. No SketchUp required; set your dimensions, tweak the options, and let the formulas drive every part.
Go straight from screen to machine. Setup is fast, assembly is simple, and parts come off the CNC ready to go with dados and pilot-hole locations already in place. Plus, every hood is either a two-piece design or includes removable/hinged panels to support blower-motor access (confirm local code requirements).
